It is recommended that you always wait for three to agree on a translation. I speak Connemara Irish, and my input will often reflect that.I will do an mp3 file on request for short translations.___________________________________________________________

Yes, sean- is an adjective that is prefixed, normally, as droch- and some others.Why? I think there's no explanation, it's the way it is (it's like, why do you say "men" in English and not "mans" :-) )

As Bríd said, it's the same in Welsh with hen-, in Breton with hen- (in placenames etc, you don't use it anymore to say "old"), in Gaelic with seann- etc. It was already a prefixed-only adjective in Common Celtic, I think.
